it's not a virus... it's a bot that's spamming the site address around here. anyone with an ounce of virus protection on their computer would know that you can't get a virus just by going to a website that loads properly (and it does).
we don't even know if it's the guy who owns ******.com or someone else... that site just appears to be of a guy who likes to make mods of things. (it's not a drill, it's a laser tag gun and he turned it into an MP3 player...)

this is a bot, not a virus. We nearly brought the Yahoo servers down today reporting this crap. Eventually it will run out. Until then, ignoring it is the best thing to do.

I don't think it's a virus. I clicked it. It's just a how-to page about building things. Nonetheless, he's pretty annoying. I reported him several times myself.

My research does not show it as a virus. However it is a lame attempt to get higher levels on yanswers. So sad.
